Fixes

SOAS

Download the SOAS 0.110 image

Mount a usb drive with minimum 4GB capacity, more is better. Backup as needed, it will be erased.

Find out the path to the device. One method is to use df -h. Be careful to identify the usb stick, e.g. /dev/sdb1 - check its size to match the size of the stick. A partition of 7.3GB might be shown for an 8GB stick.

copy the SOAS image to the stick with the dd command:

dd if= ~/Downloads/Fedora-SoaS-Live-x86_64-24-20160614.n.0.iso of=/dev/sdb1 bs=4M

Mount the stick on your computer and reboot. It should boot to Sugar.
